    Yamaha OX66 250 WOT RPM Searching?

    Is it "sputtering"? What happens if you push the throttle all the way...and go past 5100 RPM's? Sounds like it might be a fuel pump situation? Has it been happening for a while or is this something new? Any way you get get us a video of the situation you describe? Good luck!

    Late May Nor'easter

    Thinking about what Peter A & Seasick said, my slip set up is also fixed. I have a slipmate, which makes it tough to run extra lines...going to have to figure out a better line configuration.

    Late May Nor'easter

    The surveyor that my insurance used, told me he was out in P-Town the day before he saw me....said some guy lost his brand new boat to the ocean gods. Said there were 0 hours on it and a brand new loan. I feel fortunate but also feel for others that get as much enjoyment out of their boats as...

    Steam in the exhaust: Problem?

    At first glance, this doesn't look like a huge issue. Did you just start the boat? What is the temp outside? After you run the boat, does the exhaust trail disappear? I have a much older engine F250 from 2006...it does the same thing at start up and idle then the exhaust trail goes away...

    Might it be a little exhaust or fuel that hasn't burned off from when the engine shut down?

    Late May Nor'easter

    The whole dock floats up and down with the tide. I learned a big lesson from what you wrote. Thank you! In normal situations, it works just fine. I like your description of how the lines might have worked better during the storm surge...I drew it out formyself. This whole ordeal, was an...

    Late May Nor'easter

    After 2 weeks of repair - 4 new layers of glass, gelcoat, new rub rail, decals and bottom paint - I am back in the water! Very happy to make up the hours that were missed (couple times into Boston, around the harbor islands, swimming with the twins).

    Late May Nor'easter

    This year has been tough with the wind and rain up in New England (South Shore of Boston). We have had a lot of days 20+ mph of wind from the NW, N, NE, ENE etc. Speeding up the story here...my boat got smashed up at the dock. The night of the Nor'easter high tide was 9pm-ish, wind NE 40+ mph...
